Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a rigorous foundation in plane trigonometry. It introduces the subject in a practical and engaging manner, providing numerous illustrations and graphical solutions to practical problems. The author takes a problem-based approach to trigonometry, introducing concepts through real-world examples and encouraging students to make preliminary estimates and check their answers with multiple methods. Many examples and exercises are given throughout, including applications in surveying, navigation, astronomy, architecture, engineering, and other fields. The book begins with a review of the basics of geometry, followed by an introduction to the trigonometric ratios and their definitions. It then covers the solution of right triangles using both graphical and analytical methods, and introduces the addition formulas for sine and cosine. The Pythagorean relations are derived and used to develop other trigonometric identities. The book also includes a chapter on logarithmic solutions of right triangles, and a chapter on the solution of oblique triangles. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
